Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for Kinetic Energy is

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ . Filling in:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(1200)(20)^2$ It looks like we only need 1 significant digit here but I'll give you 2 and you can round how you want.

KE = 2.4 × 10⁵ J

Answer:C

Explanation:

Skier at the top of a ski has Potential Energy due to gravity.

Potential Energy is the Energy Possessed by an object when it attains a height concerning some zero level Position.

During the process of attaining the height, some work has to be done against gravity and this energy stored within the object after attaining some height w.r.t relative zero position.

Answer:

$v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}$

Explanation:

This is a projectile motion problem. We will first separate the motion into x- and y-components, apply the equations of kinematics separately, then we will combine them to find the initial velocity.

The initial velocity is in the x-direction, and there is no acceleration in the x-direction.

On the other hand, there no initial velocity in the y-component, so the arrow is basically in free-fall.

Applying the equations of kinematics in the x-direction gives

$x - x_0 = v_{x_0} t + \frac{1}{2}a_x t^2\\63 \times 10^{-3} = v_0t + 0\\t = \frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}$

For the y-direction gives

$v_y = v_{y_0} + a_y t\\v_y = 0 -9.8t\\v_y = -9.8t$

Combining both equation yields the y_component of the final velocity

$v_y = -9.8(\frac{63\times 10^{-3}}{v_0}) = -\frac{0.61}{v_0}$

Since we know the angle between the x- and y-components of the final velocity, which is 180° - 2.8° = 177.2°, we can calculate the initial velocity.

$\tan(\theta) = \frac{v_y}{v_x}\\\tan(177.2^\circ) = -0.0489 = \frac{v_y}{v_0} = \frac{-0.61/v_0}{v_0} = -\frac{0.61}{v_0^2}\\v_0 = 3.53~{\rm m/s}$
